Cheshunt U16 Blacks have just won the Mid Herts Premier division & the Premier league Divisional Cup, an outstanding achievement considering they were only formed 9 month ago!

Manager Allen Aylott and coaches Jason Hobbs & Jamie Day took on the role’s at the beginning of August 2015 to help the Club’s ambition in having more teams in each age group to help grow and develop the next generation of Ambers !

Allen Aylott reflected when we advertised for players for the Premier league team we had 42 players turn up at one trial ! an incredible turn out, considering we had four boys (Billy Aylott, Archie Gerard, Harrison Winter and Kian Littleworth) who were part of the previous year’s successful U15 EJA side who were now part of this newly formed Premier league side it meant we had 11 positions to fill from 42 trialist’s.

After a few weeks we decided on our current squad and we felt it was a side to hold its own as it was a new team and boys had to get to know each other on and off the pitch. The commitment from the players and coaches excelled any expectations we had when we entered the Mid Herts Premier Division and results soon started to go our way, we trained hard and by the end of November felt we could be in with a chance of winning the league by end of April.

Having clinched the League away to Enfield FC in April, we had Saturdays Cup final v Harlow Town FC who themselves are a very good team, having only lost three games all season two of those losses were to Harlow so we knew it wasn’t going to be an easy final.

Goals by Kodel Horace, Kian Littleworth and Scott Cleland helped us to a 3-1 win and clinch the double, a fantastic achievement and a proud moment for me and the coaches.
